thanks for adding docs! would you also mind updating the docstring to match the docs (--signal=USR1@<seconds> --> --signal=TERM@300)?
- Reword docs for clarity and tone consistency - Clarify sentinel file behavior and that Trainer does not auto-check it - Include kill_wait delay in grace period calculation - Fix Slurm signal flag in training_args.py docstring (USR1 -> TERM)
